Exceptional Photos Show Jackie ‘O’ Henderson Rapid Weight Loss Just Months After Radio Host Insists She Doesn’t Take Ozempic And It’s All Thanks To Her Good Diet And No Booze
Jackie ‘O’ Henderson made her senior red carpet debut at The Logies on Sunday after dropping a whopping 18kg.
The 48-year-old was the beauty of the prom, flaunting her super slim figure in a stylish red strapless dress by Effie Kats.
Jackie has undergone an extraordinary body transformation after taking two months off her top-rated The Kyle and Jackie O show last November to recover from long Covid.
She returned to social media on New Year’s Eve last year and posted several photos of her slimmed-down figure in a bathing suit while vacationing with her daughter Kitty in Fiji.
In the caption, the mother-of-one wished her followers a happy new year and promoted her partnership with Weight Watchers (WW), saying she felt “the best she’s had” in “many years.”

The star’s drastic downsizing became evident again in February when she began posting photos of herself with some of the guests on her radio show, including rapper Yung Gravy and Bravo king Andy Cohen.
Jackie beamed in a long-sleeved T-shirt and petite shorts as she stood next to American rapper and her co-host Kyle Sandilands.
Just weeks later, the blonde star showed off her slim frame again when she slipped into an oversized blue T-shirt and shorts as she posed alongside America’s Bravo king, Andy Cohen.
Since then, Jackie has lost even more weight, leading to the blonde being dogged by rumors that she is taking the controversial weight-loss drug Ozempic – which she has denied.

Last month, Jackie complained that she was the victim of trolls who claimed she lost weight because of Ozempic and not diet and exercise.
She said on The Kyle and Jackie O Show, “When I first lost weight and started losing weight at the beginning of the year, it was all fine. And when I lost a little more, people were suspicious that it went off very quickly.’
“And since then I would say, for the past 3 to 4 months, I’ve had people so steadfast in their belief that I didn’t get rid of this the right way and I did something different.”
Jackie insisted that no matter how someone loses weight, she did it the healthy way.

“I can’t say it enough that I’ve done nothing but just eat right, exercise and quit alcohol,” she said.
She explained that the biggest change was in her mindset, as she had previously struggled to shed unwanted pounds for the past three years because she was “not in that right headspace.”
“I just wasn’t motivated and I wasn’t feeling well mentally and so I just wasn’t there. I couldn’t find that motivation in myself,” she explained.
Jackie directly addressed critics who said she was on Ozempic, saying, “I don’t take those diabetes meds people talk about.”

Instead, she’s said she’s sticking to intermittent fasting, zero alcohol, and a healthy diet to shed the excess pounds.
Jackie, who recently started playing tennis regularly, added that quitting alcohol and embracing exercise was “a big thing (that she had never done before”).
She also confirmed she didn’t even drink alcohol at Kyle’s April wedding, opting to stay sober for the lavish occasion.
Jackie also recently spoke about her new diet on The Kyle and Jackie O Show, revealing that she often skips breakfast for intermittent fasting.

She avoids carbs and satisfies her hunger throughout the day by snacking on pre-cut pieces of steak.
Jackie recently ended her partnership with WW – formerly Weight Watchers – saying she wanted to continue losing weight.
Appearing on Sunrise in July, she said, “Yeah. I think (the partnership) has come to a natural conclusion. They have been incredible to me and they have helped me immensely.”
The radio star went on to say that she broadened her focus regarding her health after achieving her body goals through the program.
“For me, the focus is not on losing weight. I’m really grateful that they helped me a lot,” Jackie added.
“I feel like I have my life in a really good place right now. Healthy and happy.’
Jackie joined WW for a second time after suffering from her long bout with Covid which forced her to retire from her radio show last November.
Right before going on hiatus, she was open with listeners about her struggle.
“I haven’t been doing very well since having Covid… I’m struggling with this fatigue,” she said at the time.
“I went to the doctor several times and he said because I pushed myself every day, after the show I just slept and it’s not getting any better.”
Jackie was somewhat silent on social media during her hiatus, not posting any images to Instagram in November as she worked on her mental and physical health.
